... In an effort not to tip the scales over into Sloth and Gluttony, I ironed in front of the cricket and actually mended some clothes that have been sitting around for (dare I say it) several months. Whilst I am perfectly capable of sewing a button on, actually doing it seems to require a level of motivation way out of proportion to the actual act involved for some reason... Mind you, while I can sew a button on and mend a ripped seam, the aesthetic result of said ventures leave a lot to be desired! Sigh. Practice makes perfect, as they say.
Picking: Eggplants and herbs to freshen up yesterday's leftover salads.
Dinner: Sandwiches and leftover salad from yesterday.
Contemplating: Where I can scavenge lots of little (bamboo?) stakes to stick in the garden in order to stop this Boofhead from lying all over my newly-planted dwarf coffee bush:

how gorgeous is that pooch!?? Is he a long haired kelpie? Or a brown border collie? Gorgeous. re: bamboo stakes. There's a big wholesale nursery near here and they use the bamboo stakes for their plants. Last time we were there, they had a stack of them on the scrapheap - discarded for various reasons but that might be a source if you have something similar close by. Can't hurt to ask.
Hi TH, Our dogs are Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers - and yes, that really is a breed!! They are like smaller, tan-coloured Golden Retrievers. Excellent idea re:stakes from the nursery, I wouldn't have thought of them throwing them away but I'm sure they do, and as you say, it can't hurt to ask. Thanks :-)
Awwww, he may be a boofhead but he is a very cute boofhead ;)
oh wow I want your dog nearly as much as I want your cooking and sewing skills ;)
